Ptl out of Murray Kentucky announced the other day it was to ..
Cut drivers wages by ...?
Doing a pay deduction for the following ..
West of Mississippi river and anywhere in the state of lousiana a strait rate of .030 cpm
The average OTR driver at PTL makes from 0.34 -0.46. Cpm depending on experience level . No matter where you were on the pay scale the rate drops to 0.30 for the above mentioned areas.
They sent this to their drivers via a Q- com MSG stating new payroll update and then giving a 1-800 # to a automated line stating the changes.
The upper level and lower level mgt team gets a 3% raise this year ... That's right a RAISE while drivers take a cut...
All I can say is WOW ... What. Nerve,
Ky24

By what reasoning is the State of Louisiana a .30cpm state as opposed to any other state? Highways are highways in most southern states, exceptions to the rule being any major city during peak driving times.

I was talking to a snidey parked beside me yesterday. He said they cut their pay too....

It is already common knowledge that Swift bought out PTL anyway....life will only get tougher for PTL drivers.
-
that's awful. I thought PTL was doing good hauling guillotines for the government. Look up the other thread for the info.

.
And here I was wondering if I had done the right thing. By taking a .07 per mile cut in pay, for weekends home.
Hmmmmm. NOW, I'm making more than OTR drivers at most companies . -
Man I sure hope not ... Why would swift want PTL except for the hub terminal in Murray ? They have no real freight base of a substansual quanity . Hate to see swift in Murray ky I am from right down the road altough I just moved across the river 9 mths ago..
That sucks if true...!!!!
My source is my stepdad whom drives for them and just recently came back after a injury ... He got the MSG sent to his truck...
